Reasons for river restoration

Edit reasons for restoration

Mitigation of a pressure
Hydromorphology
Biology	Quantity & dynamics of flow, Channel pattern/planform, Structure & condition of riparian zones
Physico-chemical
Other reasons for the project

Measures

Edit Measures

Structural measures
Bank/bed modifications	changed bank slope
Floodplain / River corridor	local deepenings, construction of small wooden weir to prevent uncontrolled deepening, coves and bays construction, construction of the overflows between individual meanders
Planform / Channel pattern	retention of water in depressions and stream branches, ground water level rise, slower runoff of low waters
Other	re-instatement of old course;
Non-structural measures
Management interventions	late mowing and mulching on the permanently protected land, mapping of habitat types
Social measures (incl. engagement)
Other	popularization of the project, Information provision, education of the youth on the importance of nature conservation
